Mark your calendars for April 2nd, 2025, at 6 AM PST, when this much-anticipated game will finally hit the shelves. Initially funded through a successful Kickstarter campaign back in 2017, *Alcyone: The Last City* has been meticulously crafted over the years and is now ready to launch.

What Do You Do When Everything Else Is Gone?

*Alcyone: The Last City* is not just a game; it's an immersive journey into a universe where survival, power, and choice reign supreme. This expansive interactive novel allows your decisions to weave the fabric of the story, influencing paths and shaping one of many possible endings.

Set in the last remaining bastion of civilization, known simply as the City, *Alcyone* unfolds in a world ravaged by the Nihility—an event that obliterated everything at the speed of light. The City, shielded from the encroaching void, has persisted under the iron rule of the Six Ruling Houses for centuries. Here, life, work, and even death take on a different meaning, where death is not always the final chapter.
